Larkspur

Believe it or not, every stone used in this project was collected from the site. The goal for this project was to create an outdoor living environment that blended seamlessly into its surroundings making it seem as though it rises from nature itself. To give the project a modern touch we built a stone gabion for the entryway.

The design uses the surrounding natural environment for its inspiration. Everything from the colors of the sunset to the saguaros were used to create this environment. We worked with the home's Santa Fe and Pueblo influences to create something modern but not out of line. Using modern forms like the stone gabion and many of the straight lines you see we created a new refreshing landscape with a timeless feel. The gabion follows our overall concept but gives it a modern touch. The topography offered opportunities for terracing and creating different levels for outdoor living.
